SPLM A is facing tremendous challenges in establishing the Government of Southern Sudan.

(x) The use by both the Sudanese army and the Sudan People's Liberation Army Movement of civilian premises for military purposes

(xiv) The attacks on and use of force against United Nations as well as humanitarian personnel by the Sudan People's Liberation Army Movement

The Peace Agreement would enhance the chances of a peaceful resolution in Darfur and eastern Sudan. The SPLM A stood ready to offer its help so that a comprehensive peace agreement could be achieved for the whole Sudan.

MONUC has continued its efforts to take advantage of any opportunities for the peaceful repatriation of FDLR combatants and their dependants.

The next step for the Mission is to carry out similar preparatory activities in areas controlled by SPLM A.

The March 2005 announcement by the Forces démocratiques de liberation du Rwanda (FDLR) of their intention to renounce violence against Rwanda and to enter the disarmament, demobilization and reintegration process was an important development.

For the first time since the 1991 SPLM A split, more than 60 senior military commanders from both SPLM A and other armed groups gathered under the chairmanship of Mr. Garang.

President Museveni reiterated the call of the Tripartite Plus One Joint Commission that the Forces démocratiques pour la libération du Rwanda (FDLR) should be disarmed by force.

Faced with this prospect, the Government decided to send 10,000 soldiers to the east to secure the borders and clear the area of FDLR soldiers.

The Sudan People's Liberation Movement Army (SPLM A) has a key role to play in the forthcoming talks.

The Council demands that the Democratic Forces for the Liberation of Rwanda abide by the commitment made in Rome, on 31 March 2005, renounce the use of force and settle without delay the issue of their combatants' return to Rwanda.

In response to threats by Rwanda in December 2004 to enter the Democratic Republic of the Congo to forcibly disarm FDLR, additional FARDC troops were sent to the area.

(p) The demobilization and repatriation of more than 3,500 child soldiers in close cooperation between the Sudan People's Liberation Army Movement and the United Nations Children's Fund

Welcoming the signing of the Comprehensive Peace Agreement between the Government of Sudan (GOS) and the Sudan People's Liberation Movement Army (SPLM A) in Nairobi, Kenya on 9 January 2005,

I have the honour to transmit herewith a communiqué issued by the Government of the Republic of Rwanda at Kigali on Friday, 1 April 2005, concerning the decision of the ex FAR Interahamwe (FDLR FOCA) to disarm unconditionally and return to Rwanda (see annex).

The President (spoke in French) I now give the floor to the Chairman of the Sudan People's Liberation Movement Army, Mr. John Garang de Mabior.

(xv) The measures taken by the leadership of the Sudan People's Liberation Army Movement to prevent tribal elders, women and youths from participating in civil society gatherings such as the Nuer conference

The Sudan Liberation Movement Army (SLM A) has maintained an aggressive stance, establishing new checkpoints and attacking vehicles, in particular in South Darfur.

The Council has welcomed with satisfaction the measures taken by the Government of Rwanda, with the support of the international community, to repatriate FDLR members returning to Rwanda, in conformity with the applicable norms of international law and respecting the rights and freedoms of the human person.

Nevertheless, reports have indicated an increase in FDLR activities in the Kanyabayonga and Kirumba area, sometimes in conjunction with Mayi Mayi elements.

Such robust military action, in the form of cordon and search operations and the setting up of checkpoints, is aimed at loosening FDLR command over those who may wish to voluntarily turn their weapons in to MONUC and be repatriated to Rwanda.

The situation in North and South Kivu remained tense during the reporting period, with local authorities and MONUC continuing to actively follow up on the FDLR declaration of 31 March regarding the repatriation of the group to Rwanda.

Various proposals were put forward regarding a humanitarian exchange aimed at freeing the many kidnapped civilians and military and police personnel held by the FARC EP.

But the South was never conquered, and its army, the SPLA, twice fought the North to a standstill.

In eastern Sudan, the withdrawal of SPLA from the Hameshkoreib region could create a power vacuum.

The Security Council demands that FDLR seize this opportunity to proceed voluntarily with their disarmament and return to Rwanda without any delay or preconditions.

The mission also discussed with President Kagame means for the Government of Rwanda to strengthen the incentives it currently offers to FDLR to encourage its combatants voluntarily to disarm and be repatriated and reintegrated into Rwandan society.

Encourage the Government to reaffirm publicly all the commitments taken in regard to promoting the return of FDLR to Rwanda, including its commitment not to prosecute any returning ex combatant under 25 years of age.
